RADIO NEWS
HELLO FOLKS!
You are missing something these
nights.
KWL, the Los Angeles Examiner,
was heard last Tuesday and Wednes
day night. These clear cold nights
bring in the long distance signals.
Thank you, KGU of Honolulu. About
once a month you remember that
Kauai is still on the map and you
say hello and also good night. Your
programs ore coming over In fine
style.
Still They Come
Last Friday evening, KOG, Los
Angeles, KFI, Los Angetes, and
KWH also of Los Angeles were
heard fine and clear. Most of their
programs were only "canned music"
but it gives you quite a thrill to
hear 'em talk and piny music from
a spot two. thousand miles away.
Senator Radiophones
Last evening, Friday, Senator and
coming delegate, John Wise, made
a short and interesting speech to all
the people of the territory thru the
KGU broadcasting station. Speaking
to people throughout the territory
from one central point, mainly Ho
nolulu, is the great possibility of
the radiophone.
12:30 Market and stockyards re
port by Bull Durham.
This will be followed by a whist

Callia Ope.

Ing remarks on "Sparking."

Well, well, folks! The Los An
geles Examiner station was In the
air last Sunday with a good or
chestra program.
Mr. Menefoglio picks up a new
cost broadcasting station nearly ev
ery night. Denver and Berkeley be
ing the latest heard.
QRX for two minutes, government
regulations so that the girls may
powder their noses.
Last night the Los Angeles Ex
aminer got a long distance phone
call from San Diego for a request
number by the orchestra. The San
Diegoites were dancing to 'music
from Los Angeles,, and liked it.
Our phonograph is silent, now!
We never touch a thing,
Now havethe patience to allow
The canned quartets to sing.
The radio has come to cheer
The wife and kids and me;
Too often though we seem to hear
The voice of C. O. D.

ery night.
Washington Band Will Play for
Whole Country
rians are under way for broadcast
ing the band concerts held prac
tically daily in the parks of Wash
ington. Transmitting microphones
will soon be erected In the band
stands at the White House and Po
tomac Park and connected by wire
to the great naval radio station at
Aliacostia, so that when there are
band concerts they can be broad
casted for the benefit of radio en
thusiasts within 800 miles of Washington.
Later on more transmitters will
be provided for other parks and cir
cles where band concerts are held
and as there Is a concert every ev
ening the air will soon be full of
music from the capitol.
Mars Signals Again
The receptiqn of mysterious sig
nals of great wave length from some
unknown source Is reported about
every fifteen months. As a play to
the imagination, nothing is more
fascinating than the reception of
these signals from somewhere off
in space.
Radio a Necessity
Radio has come to be classed
as a winter Indoor sport for the
mainland. Down here in Hawaii we
can enjoy the year around radio, al
though it will come thru better dur
ing the winter months and will be
especially enjoyed during the rainy
weather when it is too damp to ven
ture out of doors.
The radio boom a few months
ago is slowing up a bit today, but
the future outlook is very bright.
The summer months on the main
land are hard on radio on account
of heavy static which spoils the
concerts. And these summer months,
the thoughts of all arc turned to
out of doors hiking, camping, fish
ing, traveling and hunting.
Yet all these conditions are but
passing ones. Radio has a real mis
sion to t perform and even in its
present state'of the art, fulfills its
purpose fairly well. As soon as the
weather cools down and the indoors
looks good to us, radio will occupy
our evenings. Radio in the fad stage
has passed by. We are down to
rock bottom in a very substantial
art which must find a permanent
place in our every-day life.
, Four hundred and fifty-one sta
tions are now in operation. Every
state in the Union except Wyoming
has at least one broadcasting sta
tion. Naturally the greatest number
of these stations are operated by
electrical dealers and manufactur
ers, but, C8 newspapers are broad
casting today for the benefit of
their readers and public in general.
